Hey, guys. I just used RBUtil to install the rockbox bootloader on Ubuntu Linux. I thought it might be a good idea to stop by and let you guys know that it needs to be done as root. You guys probably know that, but it doesn't seem to be on either the RockboxUtility or GraphicalInstall wiki pages. :)

It tripped me up at first, 'cos it wouldn't install the bootloader when I ran it as a normal user. When I did gksudo /path/to/rbutilqt, it worked fine. KDE users would use kdesudo instead, and those who don't have sudo would just login as root, I guess. I'm no linux guru, I'm just trying to share what I know. :)

anyway, USB full speed works fairly well on my e250 with the latest patchs from FS #8663 i get the inserted byte error once in a blue-moon with it, and it doesnt ever break anything that isnt easily replaced, especially with few files at a time

All it does is partially cover up a problem. It may turn out to be entirely the wrong solution, so there's no sense applying it until there's a proper fix since USB is disabled anyway, and will be disabled until it doesn't corrupt data.

meh, my dap was just successfully updated with the patched rb, if found if you keep transfer under 30 megs, they work without fail... its just if you exceed the buffer size it corrupts some files, and i just relised i didnt build a patched version, just stock source, and that seems too work the same...

It's the first time I've tried it on Windows (at work), and when I plug holding menu to charge only, I get the Rockbox media player popup in Windows which I cancel, after which the beast claims not to be charging

BigBambi_: charge only doesn't work well on the beast, because windows doesn't enumerate the device correctly (because of the missing driver), and the code plays nice and only uses 500mA when told that it's allowed to (which doesn't happen if enumeration isn't completed)

reading the logs too - on my PC I have no problems transferring a bigger amount of data at once (filled an 8GB microSD in chunks of 1 or two albums at once, so 60MB and more usually) with Rocbox USB on my c200. I do have a problem with the front USB ports, they work but resetting quite often so it gets too slow to be usable.

JdGordon: i noticed in some situations when the disk needs to spin up, that the statusbar appears too early. when leaving the WPS to the filebrowser with dircaache disabled and when leaving the virtual keyboard (when saving a file).

anyway the list is absolutly the wrong place to be fiddling, it is redundant there... 1) if a parent is passed to the list it wont get changed and 2) it gets the custom/full viewport if no parent is passed which means if something disabled it before and didnt reenable it that needs fixing.. no the list

ok... so going back to the confusion... "dead space" I'm talking about is the part of the display which the previous screen used but the new one doesnt. I was under the impression that only the background image would be shown here (or its not dead space)...

Zagor: One of the reasons why I ask is because if I can ever get an Archos AV100 or JBMM before hell freezes over, I want to get a port started on that, and that may be a hybrid HWCODEC/SWCODEC target.

I think "Intelligent" is a better word than "Smart". "Smart" implies other ones are not-smart. "Intelligent" implies the other one doesn't have an 'intelligence' behind it. A subtle difference, but kinda accurate.

saratoga, Llorean: I'm going to use http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/9662 for a few days, to see which possibly unexpected changes the patch introduces, and commit if it's fine. You may want to give it some testing as well

I'd really just like to remove it and see if anyone complains, then maybe point them to the last stable release or maybe a define int he config files that reenables it, in case theres some really old vorbis user out there

LucasPestana: it's on the page you were linked to. if you have specific questions we can answer them, but in general people aren't interested in holding your hand through it when there's already a document explaining it

I opened up my Meizu M6SL. markun, do you need pictures of the inside? I looked on the port page and the link to the meizu forum with internal pictures seems to be broken. don;t know wether they weren't pics of SP

well, I managed to pop off the back cover but can't flip out the pcb to see the other side. I see the samsung ARM, something that might be the codec and maybe a power manager so don't know if I should try to open it.

hi gevaerts :) how is it going? I opened it cause it wouldn't turn on cause some moisture/water got in and I thought its dead but then I found an oxidized robon connector guess coming out of the sensor, so I cleaned it and it works again

i.e. the real name policy isn't there to be difficult, it's there to be reasonably sure of copyright status of material. Putting things on a pastebin anonymously for someone else to put them on a wiki goes directly against that
